Want to play Cannon Brawl with your friends? We’ve released a free demo so your friends can try it out!

We want to get our multiplayer lobbies bursting with new people so you can always find opponents, whether you’re using our matchmaking system or inviting a friend. That’s why we’ve decided to open up the game for players to try it free.

To celebrate, we’re also putting on a sale this week. If you like what you see, you can get the full game for 40% off!

The free demo allows you to play skirmish games against the AI, unranked multiplayer, and you can accept invites to friend matches from owners of the full game. You’ll get one airship pilot and 5 war machines to try out.

The full game includes much more. It’s got a twenty mission campaign with boss battles, nightmare mode, tons more airship pilots and units to unlock, puzzle levels, and competitive ranked multiplayer.

A demo you say, so why is it called Free-To-Play?A big part of Cannon Brawl is its intense multiplayer matches. We want demo players and owners of the full game to be able to fight each other in unranked multiplayer matches. With steam matchmaking, this ends up being called Free-To-Play. But for Cannon Brawl, you can think of it as a demo. There are no microtransactions or in game purchases. If you like the free demo, you can buy and enjoy the full game like you would with any other demo.

Big update today featuring a whole new mechanic for the game! We've added a new ultimate power that charges up as your buildings take damage and will allow you to comeback from small mistakes early on.

Features

Added a new mechanic: Comeback Bombardment. As you take damage and your buildings are destroyed you can bombardment power, displayed on the top of the screen. When your meter is full you can call in a bombardment on your enemy by pressing space. The enemy buildings nearest your airship will be targeted. This is to prevent small mistakes in the beginning costing you the game and to provide for more dynamic and surprising matches. We will likely be tuning this going forward.

Tweaked random building select to not pick bank and mountain maker so often

“Cannon Brawl takes two classic genres and remixes them in a very smart, exciting, and elegant way”

Steam Big Picture

Acerca deste jogo

Get ready to play the next evolution of the artillery genre!

Cannon Brawl is an exciting mix of real time strategy and artillery gameplay. Command your airship to capture gold mines and build everything from cannons to lasers. Drop attack buildings from your airship, then pop into them to take skill shots at your opponent in real time. Upgrade each building to boost its devastating power. Advance across the kingdom in single player to unlock and discover new buildings, then experiment with each one to find your favorite combination in online multiplayer.

Choose from over fourteen buildings and five airship pilots (with more to come) for a huge variety of strategic combinations. Want to turtle up and launch big warheads from afar? You can! Want to rush to the high ground and launch a rain of missiles from above? You can! Try out tons of other strategies and crush your friends!

Cannon Brawl will challenge your ability to manage priorities, coordinate attacks and defenses, and focus through the madness of battle.

Cannon Brawl is a unique mixture of RTS and Action with a fun campaign as well as great local and online multiplayer. In Cannon Brawl you choose one of a number of different airships, each with their own pilot and special attributes, and you build turrets to destroy your enemy as well as defend your main building as well as towers and gold mines.

+Nice 2D graphics, very colourful+Simple and easy-to-navigate world map where you can find the game's missions and challenges+Unique gameplay, you can build towers anywhere on the map (as long as you have a nearby territory balloon) but choosing your tower locations strategically is very important+You control each tower individually when firing and the aiming system is very good+A wide variety of unique, as well as familiar, towers each with upgrades that can be purchased during missions to make the towers more powerful/more effective+Five different airships to choose from+Maps are fully destructible+Good variety of map size +Has singleplayer, online multiplayer and local multiplayer gamemodes+Has challenges which can be completed to earn EXP and level your profile up+Towers have reasonable/fair cooldown times+Lots of explosions+Has achievements and Trading Cards

+/-You can only equip five towers in each mission which can sometimes be quite annoying as you need good variety in your roster while keeping a good balance of tower costs +/-It is clearly intended that you use a controlle

-I found it the singleplayer got repititive very quickly when playing singleplayer-Some of the airship attributes are far more useful than others which effects the balance

Verdict:7

A great RTS/Action game that delivers a great multiplayer experience but gets boring quite quickly in singleplayer, get it to play with friends.

This is a really solid game that mixes the artillery and RTS genres together perfectly. It cuts out all of the wait time normally associated with an artillery type of game and replaces it with RTS elements. This makes for a much more fast paced and enjoyable experience that still retains the fun of angling shots over long distances to hit enemies.

A friend introduced me to Cannon Brawl and we played at work, since then i bought and played and loved every bit. There is a slight unbalance in terms of the weaponary, and i feel is lacking the amount of sheer insanity that Worms has as a similar game. That aside, I urge you to purchase and support this game. Very well made, very well managed from what i can see from the devs taking on feedback, and very well executed.

Kind of like an real-time strategy version of Worms! It's really good fun and there is quite a bit of depth to the strategy side of it. I think playing in the online ranked matches is going to give this game a long life. Check out my video for gameplay and impression on the game:

This game is great. My friends and I have been playing it since the greenlight prelease on Steam and it's amazing. It has a great blend of twitch/strategy, the art is excellent, perhaps the only thing I can think of that would improve the game is enabling 4 player so that I could get my other good friend in on our brawl sessions.

It's a good game. Soundtrack is really good, art is fine as wine, and playableitiy is good.

Runs okay, game is capped at 60, but setting menu leaves a lot to be desired. For resolution, you get fullscreen on/off.That's it.

Game does provide a nice portion of challenge and it nicely guides into it, through the campaign.The story, or what is there of it, is fairly nice, for me it seems like there are even some gurren laggan references? Though that might just be me.

in the end, it's a very nice tug of war. And my only complaint is tat 15E is a bit much. More like 10E.

Have just started playing this game, 1 hour in. Really enjoying the game, fast paced, need to stratergise with placement pf buildings and aim to out smart yoru opponent. better than worms IMO. In the future I may like to see more depth with tower add on etc. I would rate this game as an 8/10.

This game is amazing, especially when I'm smashing up my bros. I love skill-based multiplayer games, and this one takes the cake for sheer (skill + excitement) / time: every second is jammed with action. Love it!

a fun 2D side scrolling "tower defence" game. made for children but enjoyable by a large range of people. It is also a test of speed and strategy as well. Theres a large selection of towers and characters with perks and a unlock system to get more. Check it out so you have more of idea, but I do reccomend it.
